Petition The Palestinians should recognise Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state

More details

There has never, in history, been a Palestinian leader who has unequivocally and demonstrably recognised Israel's right to exist. Yasser Arafat came closest through the Oslo Accords, but when push came to shove and it was time for actions, not words, he rejected a peace deal. Three times in 100 years Israel has recognised the Palestinian right to self-determination; why no recognition the other way around?

It is time to move the peace process forward, and to place pressure on the Palestinians to recognise Israel's inalienable right to self-determination - a right recognised for all other peoples.
